Description
The book reviews existing and projected HTR systems and their design features in general, while specific design characteristics are worked out and discussed by examples restricted to the pebble-bed reactor type. Emphasis is placed on the design of this reactor type's components, safety engineering features, and emergency management. Spent fuel management and other aspects of interest from the radiological safety point of view are discussed, as well as practical aspects of the use of HTR systems for process heat and district heat generation, including economic efficiency assessments.

Abstract (German)
Das Buch gibt eine Uebersicht ueber gebaute und geplante HTR-Anlagen mit einer Beschraenkung auf das System des Kugelhaufenreaktors. Auf die Darstellung der Reaktorkomponenten, Sicherheitseigenschaften sowie des Stoerfallverhalten wird grosser Wert gelegt. Die Entsorgungsfrage und die Akzeptanz sind angeschnitten. Ergaenzend werden die moeglichen Anwendungen von HTR in der Waermewirtschaft sowie Bewertungsfragen fuer die wirtschaftlichen Bedingungen beim Einsatz von HTR-Anlagen dargelegt.
